## What is remote video production?

Remotely produced video is where a Wavecast Engineer captures speaker(s) content over a video conference platform, such as Zoom, and edits it into a final video package. 

It is an efficient method to pre-record content for live broadcasts, repurpose long-form video or produce cost-effective branded video for marketing and social media distribution. 

## What to expect from us:

* Recording session meeting link to share with your speakers.
* Graphics - these will be created once design assets and speaker details are received. They should be signed off ahead of the recording.
* The Engineer will facilitate the recording and carry out the edits.

## What we need from you:

* Proposed recording time and date.
* Deadline for final version of video.
* Approx duration of video.
* Session format (fireside chat, presentation, panel discussion).
* Video format (event session, social post).
* No. of speakers and details for name straps (name, title, organisation).
* If being used, presentation slides to be submitted as a pdf to ensure formatting is maintained.
* Any other video content to include in the edit (MP4 files).
* Share a script if your speakers are following one.

## Recordings with graphics

Graphics will be created in advance of your recording session and applied during the edit. The standard graphics pack includes:

* Namestraps
* Session slate
* End slate

If you have any custom graphics of your own, these can be incorporated. Please liaise with your Producer in advance.
